There's a lot of talk about mindfulness and with good reason. Mindfulness helps us to slow down our overthinking brains, to let go of rehashing what's already happened or imagining what could or could not happen next. To just be here, in this moment, in what's real in our lives right now without judging it or trying to change it.
In this episode we look at:
- What mindfulness is
- What the benefits are of practising mindfulness
- How mindfulness reduces how stressed we feel and gets us out of worrying mode
- How to take a micro mindful moment
- How mindfulness can be integrated into our day rather than added to it
